High breakdown analogs of the trimmed mean

Author

  • Olive, David J.

Abstract

Two high breakdown estimators that are asymptotically equivalent to a sequence of trimmed means are introduced. They are easy to compute and their asymptotic variance is easier to estimate than the asymptotic variance of standard high breakdown estimators.
